Dustin Ballard (There I Ruined It) has a particular talent for taking iconic musical masterpieces and showing us how common they really are by presenting them in a completely different and nonsensical musical genre. The band Nine Inch Nails had a depressing song called "Hurt" that was famously covered by Johnny Cash in 2002. If you liked the song, you thought of it as deep. If you didn't, it was pretentiously angsty. Here, The Beach Boys render the song in their good time surfer rock style. (via Laughing Squid)

But I like the Beach Boys one best so far.
Johnny Cash made it his own, made it believable.
ReplyDeleteDustin Ballard makes it fun.
